The Importance of Pi-Interactions in Crystal Engineering: Frontiers in Crystal Engineering, 2nd Edition

Crystal engineers aim to control the way molecules aggregate in the
crystalline phase and are therefore concerned with crystal
structure prediction, polymorphism, and discovering the relative
importance of different types of intermolecular forces and their
influence on molecular structure. In order to design crystal
structures, knowledge of the types, strengths, and nature of
possible intermolecular interactions is essential. Non-covalent
interactions involving p-systems is a theme that is under extensive
investigation as these interactions can be inductors for the
assembly of a vast array of supramolecular architectures.

The Importance of Pi-Interactions in Crystal
Engineeringcovers topics ranging from the identification of
interactions involving p-systems, their impact on molecular and
crystal structure in both organic and metallorganic systems, and
how these interactions might be exploited in the design of new
materials. Specialist reviews are written by internationally
recognized researchers drawn from both academia and industry.

The Importance of Pi-Interactions in Crystal
Engineeringprovides an essential overview of this important
aspect of crystal engineering for both entrants to the field as
well as established practitioners, and for those working in
crystallography, medicinal and pharmaceutical sciences, solid-state
chemistry, physical chemistry, materials and nanotechnology
